    If you could have any job in the world, which one would you like?

    For me, I can cross CEO of BP out...That leaves me with my dream job of being a small business owner.  Maybe a small accounting firm or consulting firm.

    What about you?

    I am presently working on an integrated business model, while I write on HubPages and promote my name(and company name), who helps a lot of people gain more satisfaction from their life. smile

      very cool Cags...what type of business are you running?

      1. Cagsil profile image71
        Cagsilposted 14 years agoin reply to this

        I am not running it. Right now, it's in the development stage. But, I need to earn a living, so I write here, until it no longer can be done, which will mean that I am finish designing/developing my company's infrastructure/business model.

        Once completed, I will write here, only on occasion and most likely be in the forum very little. It's an advocacy business.

        Clarinet, but I've let my skills slide in recent years.  Playing in an orchestra was pure happiness for me.

    Actually my dream job would be to sit around writing on here all day drinking coffee from the comfort of my living room. I could even get a dog.

    I am actually about a quarter of the way towards being able to realise that, although one quarter in 11 months isn't so great.

      Is it residual? If so, realize you're closer than you appear. Maintaining any residual income of any level is good.

      I have watched as my account has continued to increase on a residual nature. So far, I've been able to make $38 twice in two months, counting May. However, my earnings for May alone are more than double that of April. But, $38 of May is residual income.

      It is a trend of progression and growth. It is positive and should be looked upon it as that. I realize you are busting your butt to get that earnings and I'm sure you're tied back to front on links to other places.

      However, I am not. My total earnings for my 8 months is about $160 in all. You have a residual earning of what $500 per month?

      What I wouldn't give to have that right now. hmm

        It reminds me a lot of the mathematics of compound interest...once you do the work to build the foundation, it can serve to provide "interest" for a long time.  (at least I hope it will!)

      2. profile image0
        ryankettposted 14 years agoin reply to this

        Yeah, well I have seen good growth for every month but one. I broke $500 for the first time this month, $575 I think was my final figure. My only monthly decline was 5%, so assuming that nothing crazy happens, then I can realistically expect to make over $575 next month.

        I am currently publishing like crazy, to keep the momentum. I could probably dedicate myself full time to this if I reached $1200... which is enough to feed myself and pay the bills whilst I pursue faster growth...

        We will see, I cross my fingers, I want a dog and this is the only way that I can achieve that! (And that really is the reason!).

          The first quarter is the most important. It makes me going and going.
          On average, I make $4 - $5/day. I still remember the first click a couple month back.

            That is very good going, $4-$5 is a good start for a 2 month old hubber.

            Keep up the good work.

    Luckily, my dream has already turned to reality:
    I used to teach Literature to graduate students and truly loved the experience.
    Then, I work part time as a social worker for mentally disabled people- which is the most rewarding (though challenging) thing ever.
    Also, am studying for a degree in child  psychology so I can work with children now.

    Meanwhile, I'm busy writing for some off line projects....plus I work as a moderator for another forum... so basically, I couldn't ask for anything more! Really.... smile

      Wow!  That is awesome.  I think it takes a special kind of person to do that work.

      I am in the military and always tell my staff to take full advantage of the educational opportunities that the military offers.  It amazes me how many of them do not take advantage of tuition assistance and the GI Bill.  Good for you on seeking a degree in Child Psychology (that would help in my job too!  wink )
